Little Bear Lodge
Location: Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
Area: Sky Harbor
Description
Slip away for a memorable time at Little Bear Lodge, a lovely, newly decorated, and pet-friendly 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom family cabin in the Sky Harbor community of Pigeon Forge. Cozy enough for couples and spacious enough for a family or group of friends at 1,800+ square feet of space across 3 levels, this cabin for 10 is the perfect place to retreat to after playing at Dollywood, exploring The Island, and checking out the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Centrally located about 15 minutes from both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, this mountain home puts you in a prime spot for exploring!
After exciting days in town, return to Little Bear Lodge for enchanting tree-studded views, soothing soaks in the indoor jetted tub, unwinding in the 5-person outdoor hot tub on the deck, and quiet nights in front of the gas fireplace. Want to play? Little Bear Lodge has board games for family game night, a new 60-game arcade unit, and a foosball table and pool table for cabin downtime. There’s even a nice media space in the rec room with a big screen Ultra HDTV, perfect for movie night every night in the Smokies!
Living Room
Step into the open floorplan of Little Bear Lodge, featuring treetop views through the beautiful windows, brand-new hardwood floors on the entry level, and stylish décor throughout the home. Why even the living room furniture has been fully upgraded to keep you in total comfort, with a plump sofa (doubles as a queen sleeper) and matching love seat. Hop on the couch for a restful snooze before dinner, snuggle with your spouse for a romantic comedy on the big screen TV, or play a card game at the breakfast table for 2. And when cool evenings settle in, flip on the gas fireplace to stay warm and toasty — paired with a cup of joe or hot cocoa, what could be better? Oh, and let’s not forget your cheerful welcome by the adorable black bear carved by a local crafter…what a nice touch the kids will love!
Kitchen
When on vacation, it’s always nice to save a little cash, and with the fully equipped and upgraded kitchen — boasting gorgeous countertops and a new, sleek stove — at Little Bear Lodge, you’ll do just that. Pots and pans, mugs, dishes, silverware, cookware, and all the necessary appliances are ready and waiting for homemade breakfasts, secret recipes, baked goodies, midnight snacks…you name it! Store restaurant leftovers in the fridge, curb your sweet tooth with frozen treats in the freezer, pop everyone’s movie-night favorite in the microwave, brew a steaming pot of coffee whenever you please, and let the dishwasher take care of the dirty work.
Dining Area
Speaking of tasty grub, the dining area at Little Bear Lodge is perfect for gathering the group for family meals and quality time together. Featuring a lovely and modern chandelier delicately placed over the large table with a beautiful matching top to the kitchen counters, charming bench seating, and 2 end chairs, this dining area is not only functional but attractive as well. Plus, you’ll have lovely woodsy views to enjoy with every meal through the surrounding windows.
Rec Room
Up for a game…or ten? Venture to the rec room — featuring all-new furniture — for foosball battles, classic arcade games, pool tournaments, and board games galore! Grab a seat at the game counter and get ready to take on Monopoly, Risk, Slamwich, Mad Gab, Rummikub, Balderdash, and more. The champion’s prize? The right to choose the feature film of the night, be it Blu-ray or DVD, on the big screen Ultra HDTV in the media space! With a queen sleeper sofa, plush love seat, and a twin bunk, those who wish to game all night can certainly do so with ease and comfort in this epic game room.
Bedrooms
Ready to hit the hay? Head to one of 2 bedrooms, each with their own flatscreen TV, ceiling fan, and cozy furnishings. Go for the queen-size bed in the smaller bedroom or opt for the king-size bed in the primary suite, complete with bonus amenities. Soak away your worries and cares with lavender-scented bubbles in the indoor jetted tub and flip on the big screen TV for entertainment before bed. With a queen sleeper in the living room and another queen sleeper plus a twin bunk in the rec room, there’s plenty of space to keep up to 10 guests more than comfortable. Further adding to the convenience Little Bear Lodge provides are 2 full bathrooms — with new flooring to boot!
Outdoor Spaces
Ah, it’s time to head outside and inhale the fresh Smoky Mountain air. And at the semi-private Little Bear Lodge, you can enjoy freshly grilled meals from the charcoal, picnic-style grill, relaxing soaks in the 5-person hot tub, and charming woodsy views all around! Sip wine on the bench under the stars, sway gently in the rocking chairs, and reconnect with nature. Plus, with a flat, paved driveway, parking for 3, and only 1 step to enter the home, unloading and packing the cars will be a breeze, making your Smoky Mountain vacation that much easier.
Other Amenities
Who’s ready for cabin extras? Stay connected with high-speed wireless internet, use the washer and dryer so you don’t have to go home with a suitcase of dirty clothes, and blare your favorite tunes for a groovy dance session with the CD player!
Local Fun
You know, it’s not all about the cabin…though, it’s perfectly okay if it is as Little Bear Lodge has it all and then some. However, we do highly recommend venturing out every once in a while to check out local attractions, outdoor activities, and seasonal events.
The Dome Ziplines
Hold on to your hats (literally) for an incredible adventure at The Dome Ziplines, featuring 11 ziplines reaching heights upwards of 65 feet in the air!

Dollywood, the famed amusement park of the Smokies, awaits with roller coaster rides, musical performances, eagle encounters, and country treats!

"Great location, short drive to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Smoky Mountains National Park. Plenty to do and see. The cabin is perfect, plenty of room, rainy day activities (arcade was a big hit), and a hot tub! Only wish we could have stayed longer!"

"We were very pleased with our stay at Little Bear Lodge! The location is pretty good. It's right at the end of Pigeon Forge which makes it kind of in the middle of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Which is great if you want to visit both. The road leading to it is a bit tight and windy but I realize most roads leading to cabins are. There were cabins next door but not too close. The porch and balcony were semi private. We had exactly 10 people and we all slept comfortably. The tvs and DVD players in every room were nice, and the arcade machine downstairs was a huge plus. We loved it. Overall we really enjoyed it and would have no problem staying here again."
